This video is meant to help users navigate the Digital Academy. It provides a short introduction to the platform and gives an overview of the available materials that aim to build media literacy skills and help users better understand and respond to climate-related disinformation.
In the video dedicated to content creation, we highlight simple but important principles to support responsible online behaviour. These include checking the accuracy of information, distinguishing between personal opinions and facts, being respectful in language and tone, protecting the privacy of others, and thinking carefully about why something is being posted and who it might affect. These basic guidelines aim to encourage users to pause and reflect before publishing content online.
The video invites users to ask questions such as: Who created the content? Are they a credible source? What is being said and is it backed by facts? When was it published and is it still relevant? Where is it hosted and does the platform seem trustworthy? And finally, why was it created, what purpose does it serve, and who benefits from it?
